Grammy Award-winning band Korn will headline a four-night music festival cruise in September on the newly upgraded Carnival Ecstasy.

The California band will join Hoobastank and Fuel on the first Rockaholica Cruise. The sailing will feature more than 10 bands and 30 performances, organizers say.

The festival will include an opportunity for passengers to sing with a live band in a new twist on karaoke. The sailing also will schedule photo opportunities with the musicians, among other other special events.
